Thanks to the previous tip which I upvoted, I used Imagemagick convert directly, to resize to different resolutions from e.g. Inkscape is nice but I already have it on Windows and it would eat a up a lot of extra space on my WSL environment. ( see inkscape manual)Ģ) Add to the above script the convert syntax stated in philippe-b answer which merges all the generated PNGs to a single ICO fileģ) Optionally, remove all exported PNGs as they are no more needed Each command in shell mode must be a complete valid Inkscape command line but without the Inkscape program name, for example 'file.svg -export-pdf=file.pdf'. This feature is mostly useful for scripting and server uses: it adds no new capabilities but allows you to improve the speed and memory requirements of any script that repeatedly calls Inkscape to perform command line tasks (such as export or conversions). In this mode, you type in commands at the prompt and Inkscape executes them, without you having to run a new copy of Inkscape for each command. With this parameter, Inkscape will enter an interactive command line shell mode. The 'shell' cli param accepts more commands using a single instance instead of spawn an instance per command. the script echoes all export commands to a temp file to a better management of inkscape process.

the defined %inkscape% var should be adequate to your Inkscape install path.
